Chapter 10: Surprise!
"I'm going out to the deck! Anyone coming?!" Kitty yelled through the door of the bathroom. She had just finished changing into a maroon bikini that Jubilee insisted on her buying a while back. When she didn't hear a reply she stepped out from the bathroom. The room was empty. Figures. She found a note tapped to the mirror that said Jubilee and Rogue went to a movie aboard the boat. This place was heaven! It even had it's own theater.
"Oh well. If I need to get back in, I guess I could phase through." Kitty said aloud. She pulled her hair from its high ponytail and brushed it. She grabbed her sarong and opened the door ready to walk out. Only to bump into Bobby and Lance who were snickering. She was about to ask why they were there when she noticed Bobby's hands were iced up and he was getting ready to freeze the door knob. When Bobby saw her, he immediately turned red.
"Oh, hiya Kitty. We were... ummm." Pause. "Kitty you look great! Where are you going?" he asked with a mischievious smirk. Kitty knew that smirk all too well.
"Drake and Alvers! I never would have thought!" kitty bit back a laugh as she registered the puzzled look on Lance's face.
"What are talking about?" he asked confused. Kitty couldn't contain her laughter anymore. She burst out in a fit of giggles.
"You two were making out, weren't you?!" Kitty said through her laughter. Bobby's face drained itself of color, while Lance looked sick.
"WHAT?!" came their reply. Kitty couldn't help herself. She nearly fell over from laughing so hard.
"I was j-just kidding! HAHAHAHAHA!" Kitty cried. Lance and Bobby scowled. When Kitty finally got control over her laughing, she couldn't help but smile.
"Aww, you guys I was just kidding! Forgive me?"
No answer.
"Please?" Kitty then used her best attack. The Puppy-Dog Face.
"Kitty, don't do that. Kitty, no! Oh alright, alright. I forgive you." Bobby said still frowning. Lance nodded with the same frown. Kitty giggled then hugged them both. He face then became serious.
"And may I ask what you two were getting ready to do to our lock?" Kitty said tapping her foot.
"Well- we- I mean- ummm- you see-" stammered Lance. Kitty held up a hand. She knew what they were doing.
"If you guys were looking to prank us, you've got another thing comin'." She looked pointedly at Bobby, knowing he probably talked Lance into the prank. Kitty looked at a very shamed Bobby and a sheepish Lance. She couldn't help but cave.
"Oh, alright they went to the theater. They're seeing 'Scary Movie', but you didn't hear it from me." Kitty said somewhat reluctant. Bobby's face immediately brightened.
"Thanks Kit! I owe ya one!" he called over his shoulder. Kitty shook her head and grinned.
'Yeah, you owe me one alright.' She thought as she turned and headed for the deck.
Pietro was frightfully bored.
Sure, he was surrounded in piles of beautiful girls telling him how much they wanted him, but it didn't mean anything. And quite frankly, he was bored. That was until he saw a petite brunette wearing a maroon bikini leaning over the ship's railing.
'Whoa! Babe at 10:00!' Pietro thought. He did a super-quick evaluation in his head. Like he did whenever he saw a girl. 'Hmm, let's see. Nice hair, nice waist, nice ass. She's beautiful. But she seems oddly familiar. Like I know her. I've had this feeling before but- naw, couldn't be.' Pietro walked toward the girl until he was directly behind her. Her hair was blowing out from behind her as she watched the waves the boat created. Pietro moved in until he was just touching her ear.
"Hi. You know, a beautiful girl like you should be over there on that chair... with me." He whispered seductively. The girl giggled and turned around. When she caught sight of her suitor, her eyes widened in horror.
"Maximoff! What the hell?!" said the girl. Pietro couldn't speak. He had actually called Kitty Pryde beautiful. Pietro jerked backwards.
"Pryde! What are you doing here? In that?!" he screamed. Kitty scowled.
"Well seeing that I am on vacation and that I'm on a boat—"Pietro cut her off.
"No-I-mean-what-are-you-doing-following-me! And-dressing-up-as-an-actual- girl-that-doesn't-think-about-how-much-extracredit-she-has-to-do? Oh-wait-i- know-that-I'm-irresistable-but-damm!" Kitty turned red with rage.
"You jerk! I wouldn't follow you, you absolute playboy! Trust me, who'd want to?" she shot.
"Well, actually take a look around," Pietro said as he swept his hand over the deck. Kitty followed his hand and every girl standing around was gazing at Pietro longingly. Some were even glaring at her. Pietro turned toward her and leaned in closer to her. He bent down toward her ear and whispered, "And I know you do too. Don't think I don't know what goes on in that pretty head of yours, you saucy thing, you." Kitty tried desperately to ignore the electric feeling she had when Pietro's breath hit her ear. Instead she yelled in his face, "You bastard!" and turned on her heel and walked as fast as she could back to her cabin. Pietro smiled coldly.
"I think I just found a way to entertain myself for the rest of this trip." He said with a smirk.
Pietro hurried after Kitty with a huge grin plastered on his face.
